I received the most fabulous package today. Epicness and Win, my friend. Epicness and win. Be prepared to be awe'd by awesomness and lots of pictures including onces of my offspring, Lillypants.

First, we shall begin with this little fellow. The card that came with the package explained that his name was Carl, and he indeed, did eat squirrels, on toast. Also, he enjoys shark week. When I told Lilly that his name was Carl, her eyes got big and she said "Peepaw?"

And I laughed, realizing that yes, in fact, her grandpa's name was also Carl.

But he is from Kentucky, and has eaten squirrel. And he's a grump. So I didn't correct her.

This is Lilly after I took Carl Zombie Gnome from her, for only a moment.

She's pouting. But I needed to take a picture of the most epickly cute gnome shirt ever. And I totally agree with you, Doxie. The Childrens Clothing Section is kind of like it's own ring in hell. Scary.

Suddenly, Lilly was no longer pouting, because she was distract by some more cute and shiney.....

OUCH!

In the scramble to remove sharp and pointies from Lilly's grab-hands, she managed to stab me. These are pretty awesome though, because I just made a woodland themed cork board for Lilly's room to hang her colorings.

Doxie is also currently in another swap I'm organizing, and she very cleverly monopolized on the fact, and whipped me up this fantastical bookmark of genius.
